The perfect womanJ
Nasrudin was talking to a friend, who asked him:
'Have you never considered getting married, Mullah?'
'I have,' replied Nasrudin. 'In my youth, I resolved to find the perfect woman. I crossed
the desert and reached Damascus, and I met a lovely, very spiritual woman, but she knew
nothing of the world. I continued my journey and went to Isfahan; there I met a woman who
knew both the spiritual and the material world, but she was not pretty. Then I decided to go to
Cairo, where I dined in the house of a beautiful woman, who was both religious and a
connoisseur of material reality.'
'Why didn't you marry her, then?'
'Alas, my friend, she was looking for the perfect man.'
